    GH3/4 Lenses

    I have mentioned them here a couple times. I have the 16mm and it seems to be a good focal lenght for aerial. The 12mm was delayed a year to get it perfect and is just being released now. Awesome lenses for a reasonable price and ideal for our applications. The founder of veydra answers...

    Wanted Multirotor to meet specs

    If you want people to help.you, you need to spend the time and effort explaining exactly what you need to achieve. My point is, phantoms take 12mp pics but are they really 12mp? Compare that against a 12mp dslr with a man sized sensor. The more info you give us, the more accurately people...

    GH3/4 Lenses

    very worthy of your consideration and when you compare cost vs ef mount canon with speed booster you are way ahead of the game. much more compact and lighter too. http://www.veydra.com Google around for sponsored and non sponsored reviews. They are all impressive. Cheers Chris

    T-Motor 40A -400MHz ESC Questions

    Just by listening to you talk it sounds like you are pretty sharp with this stuff. Why the heck did you hire a builder? lol Were the esc's throttle calibrated to your radio?

    Current feeling on U7 and equivalent KDE?

    Static test I did last winter. ESC shut down completely if @ full throttle for more than a second.

    Current feeling on U7 and equivalent KDE?

    I have my own opinion on that. Yes kde way more responsive but what does that really mean? For a full sized camera ship do you want it to have a sports car feel or do you want it to be a little soft and forgiving? Think about this. I don't think it is really a benifit here. Maybe it is...

    Maintenance of motors?

    When a bearing dies from contamination the result can be quick and catastrophic. Just wearing out is a whole different story. You can get a years worth of signs it's time for new ones.

    Maintenance of motors?

    Just a sidebar to this conversation. Ive seen so many videos of guys taking off from a beach or somewhere in the desert. All that dust kicking up makes me cringe. Why don't these guys keep a 10 x 10 canvas tarp in their truck to launch off? Boggles my mind.

    Maintenance of motors?

    Get an open bearing. No seals, no lubricant. hold it in your hand and use compressed air to spin it at a high speed. Within seconds that sucker will be so hot you gotta drop it. Yes the bearings themselves generate heat. More drag = more heat. Even grease creates drag. Super high...

    Maintenance of motors?

    I keep these in stock for my U7's. NSK is Japanese and make awesome bearings. Other good brands are SKF, FAG, NTN, Koyo, Nachi just to name a few.

    Maintenance of motors?

    You rang? Lol. I was in the bearing business for 20 years. I am a "Certified Bearing Specialist" see here: www.bsahome.org Do not try to remove the seals and replace lubricant. These bearings are sooooo small and have a close gap between the seal and inner race. That is where you...
